And for those that continue to ignore them, the courts are the answer."And that's where we come in and we have put more people in front of the courts around the drink driving issue in the run up to this Christmas than we did last year and we're very disappointed to have had to that," he said."But for those that don't get the education message, they'll find the enforcement message is right behind it."
